Strategy for Europe
The basis of the strategy is a three-pronged attack on three levels:
1. Working group level:
Launch the arguments into the right committees, SE24 and TG 28
2. Top Level ERO/ECC
Ensure they get the message that IEEE answers precisely their need.
3. Top Level ETSI:
Arrange (hopefully joint) backing from IEEE for a joint approach to ECC/ETSI, pushing the argument on the basis of world harmonisation, and speed and efficiency( don’t re-invent the wheel).
4. LPRA meeting
Participate in the LPRA meeting with IEEE and/or ZigBee.
